Top Gear BBC

So, can we talk Top Gear?

I couldn't be happier to hear that Chris Evans is leaving and Matt LeBlanc will be taking the lead role. Pair LeBlanc with Chris Harris and they have two out of three - now they just need to find that third person to close the deal and they might just be back in business!

For me the best news was Top Gear USA barley made it one sessions. I watched it for about 10 min and that was too long. We just can’t do it as good as the Brits. Wheeler Dealers in USA is sad also.

I'd rather talk about The Grand Tour! Going to blow Top Gear out of the water.

Giller, thanks for the heads up on Grand Tour. Watched the trailer and it does look really good.

+1 on The Grand Tour. My wife and I finished season one a while back and really liked it. I'm blessed to be married to a car nut. I tried but didn't care for the US Top Gear.
